Yiyi stepped on the accelerator, and the RV drove slowly into the vast rain curtain accompanied by the sound of dripping water. The city was eerily quiet, as if the base in Funan City had never existed before. Yiyi planned to drive all the way down to the south of Funan City, and then cross four cities to reach Jing City, the economic and political center here. Yiyi thought that the distance along the way was far enough, and maybe she could get three level 3 mutant animal crystal cores. If that didn't work, Jing City was so big, there must be a lot of survivors gathered there, and maybe she could exchange them for something else.
She shared her idea with Chen Wan, who also thought it was okay. After the two of them made up their minds, Yiyi gradually increased her speed. The sky gradually brightened, but it was still foggy in the distance, and the rain gradually got heavier.
After everyone finished breakfast, Zizi sat on a mat on the ground and played with the dogs. Chen Wan and the others held a brief meeting at the small dining table. "We'll be heading to Jing City next. Level 2 zombie cores are easy to find; we can gather enough in a few days. But level 3 mutant animal cores are harder to find. If we can't find any, we can trade other supplies with the locals in Jing City. After all, it's the capital, so there must be similar trading markets there."
"Okay, we'll go wherever you go." Qin Ke was the first to answer.
"Okay, that's settled. Once the RV is upgraded, we can find a safe village to settle down. But not now. Look at the continuous rain outside. If it continues for a few days, there will probably be floods. Once the sewage systems of these cities are completely blocked, the consequences will be unimaginable. No matter how safe the RV is, if it is flooded, we won't have much to do. We still have to upgrade to ensure safety first." Chen Wan explained a few more sentences.
Ye Lan looked at the rain outside the window and felt a little uneasy. "Chen Wan, do you think we'll be okay?"
"No, Mom. As long as we can successfully upgrade the RV as soon as possible, there won't be too many problems." Chen Wan comforted, but looking at the rain outside, Chen Wan himself felt a little uneasy.
She stood up and sat in the passenger seat next to Yiyi, observing the road conditions ahead. They had killed more than 200 zombies along the way.
The RV drove forward for about half an hour, and suddenly gunshots were heard in front, followed by violent collisions and splashes of water. However, due to the rainy weather, they were still some distance away from the bridge, and Chen Wan could not see clearly.
"There should be someone ahead, let's go over and take a look." Only by crossing this bridge can we get to the whole
This is the winding mountain road in Luo City, so Chen Wan and the others have to pass through here.
Yiyi continued to drive the RV forward and stopped the car when it was still some distance away from the bridge. They could now clearly see the movement in front of them. There were five military vehicles parked by the bridge.
There were many bodies of soldiers lying on both sides of the bridge, and now there were four or five soldiers staring nervously at the wide river, as if they were afraid that there was something in the river.
Chen Wan saw through the glass that there were four people sitting in the military vehicle in the middle. One of them was not wearing a military uniform. Chen Wan thought that they must be important non-military figures.
Just as she was looking over there, there was a splashing sound on the water. A moment later, a huge object jumped out of the water and attacked the five military vehicles in front.
One of the soldiers actually threw away his gun and rushed towards the big octopus madly, waving his saber. Soon one of the octopus's legs was cut off, and the soldier was thrown far away by the octopus. At the same time, zombies continued to gather here. The soldiers had to guard against the octopus while shooting at the zombies to prevent them from rushing towards the car in the middle.
"The octopus just now was a level three mutant animal." Yiyi reminded from the side.
"Great, I didn't expect to encounter a level three mutant animal so soon." Chen Wan showed a happy expression. Besides, there were a lot of zombies nearby. Now they could gather all the crystal cores of the level two zombies.
Yiyi adjusted the direction and drove towards the groups of zombies in front. There was a continuous sound of "bang bang bang". Because these level 2 zombies were distributed too densely, even if they knew to hide, they had no time to dodge. They were either hit directly by the RV or thrown out by the mechanical arm in front of the RV. Just by hitting the way forward, hundreds of zombies were killed.
"Captain, who are those people? Can we ask them for help?" asked the soldier on the captain's left.
"Their car is a bit interesting, with a mechanical arm on the front, but it's just a motorhome with weapons. This monster is a level three mutant. I, a level one strength user, can only chop off the edges of this thing, and I was just knocked away. Not to mention the ordinary people in the car. If the motorhome is sucked into the water by the octopus's legs, everyone in the motorhome will die. Let's not implicate ordinary people. Fortunately, they have diverted the attention of the zombies, so we can deal with this octopus with peace of mind." The captain looked at the people around him.
The soldier said.
"Okay, captain, let's fight this thing." Li Xiang roared and raised the rifle in his hand. Most of their teammates were killed, and only the last five of them were left.
Seeing that the zombies in front were almost hit, Yiyi quickly turned the car around to hit the zombies in the other direction, and the octopus on the other side emerged from the water again.
The sound of "bang bang" gunfire was endless. The damage caused by the rifle to this thing was not worth mentioning at all. The bullets hitting the giant octopus were like tickling the octopus. However, the continuous shooting of several people had completely angered the octopus. A soldier was swung by the octopus's octopus legs and was directly dragged into the river, and was no longer alive.
Captain Zhan Feng saw another soldier killed by the octopus, so he rushed towards the octopus with red eyes and holding a knife. Unfortunately, his strength ability could only cut off some of the edges and corners of the octopus, and it could not get into the core circle. The octopus was still gliding on the bridge with ease. Another two octopus legs were swung out, and two soldiers who were still shooting were caught by the octopus legs, thrown far away, and flew heavily and hit the ground from a distance. The two soldiers were motionless and obviously dead.
Zhan Feng and Li Xiang were furious when they saw that there were only two of them left out of a team of more than 20 people. Their team had always been brave enough to fight, and this time they had received the mission to go to Funan City to rescue Dr. Wang. They didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Captain, there are two soldiers on General Lu's side. I'll go and ask them to come down and help." Li Xiang shouted to Zhan Feng.
Zhan Feng shook his head. "Go tell them to evacuate quickly and wait for an opportunity to leave. If anything happens to Dr. Wang, our mission will be a complete failure. You go with them, and I'll hold that thing back."
"Captain, I'll stay with you." Before Li Xiang started walking towards the car where Dr. Wang was, the octopus had already moved first, rushing towards Li Xiang and Zhan Feng. The two of them dodged around the military vehicles nearby, but this angered the octopus, which couldn't catch anyone. It circled the first military vehicle and threw it into the river, followed by the second one.
The third car that Dr. Wang and his companions were in wanted to turn, but there were two military vehicles blocking the way behind them. It was too late to reverse. At this moment, Chen Wan and his companions had almost killed all the second-level zombies. Chen Wan controlled a mechanical arm, grabbed a zombie's body and threw it at the octopus, attracting its attention.
The RV was too far away from the octopus, so the octopus did not attack the RV.
But the octopus did not touch Chen Wan and the others, because Chen Wan and the others needed the octopus's crystal core to upgrade the RV.
Sure enough, the octopus that was hit by the zombie's corpse noticed the RV, and slid towards the RV in anger using the rain on the road, while stretching out its octopus legs to roll up the body of the RV.
This creature was so massive that even a RV weighing several tons could still be swept up by its two octopus legs. The RV suddenly lost weight, and Chen Wan controlled the two robotic arms to ruthlessly pinch off the octopus's two legs. The RV fell heavily to the ground with a "bang", splashing a large amount of water. At the same time, Yiyi beside Chen Wan reported in real time: "The tire is damaged by 5%."
The RV had been lifted up a distance of seven or eight meters. If it were an ordinary vehicle that fell to the ground like this, not only would the tires but even the wheels would be flattened.
The baby was frightened by the fall from the RV and started crying in Ye Lan's arms.
Ye Lan hugged the baby tightly in her arms and coaxed: "Don't be afraid, Yangyang, we will be fine. Don't cry, don't cry."
Big Flower, Second Flower, Third Flower, and Fourth Flower looked at the crying, frightened child in Ye Lan's arms, and stared fiercely at the octopus outside. "That thing is so abominable! It scared its little master to tears!" The flowers decided to teach the octopus a lesson.
Seeing Zi Zi crying, the four dogs could no longer sit still in the RV and rubbed against Chen Wan's legs to act coquettishly. Chen Wan glanced at them and asked, "What's wrong? Do you want to go out hunting?"
The mother dog nodded her fluffy white head and barked a few times, scaring her little master to tears. Her three puppies were too well-behaved, so she had to teach them how to hunt, otherwise how could she protect her little master in the future.
Chen Wan patted Dahua's head and said, "Okay, take care of the flowers and be careful."
Dahua nodded, and together with the puppies, they waited at the door of the RV with their tails wagging like propellers, waiting for their owner to open the door for them.
Chen Wan opened the door of the RV. The four white balls, one big and three small, expanded several times the moment they got out of the car. They all turned into mutant dogs with fangs on their mouths and giant steel claws more than ten miles long on their paws. They were completely different from their cute and silly appearance in the RV. Several mutant dogs raised their fangs and rushed towards the octopus viciously.
The steel claws on the mutant dogs' hooves scraped against the road, creating a series of piercing scraping sounds. Octopus, noticing the sudden appearance of four Level 3 mutant dogs near the RV, subconsciously used his octopus legs to step back a few steps.
